Wiseman helms Total Recall Remake

The Die Hard 4.0 helmer has agreed to helm the film, based on Philip K. Dick’s story We Can Remember It For You Wholesale.

Wiseman said: “I’ve always been fascinated with Philip K. Dick’s short story, and I’m excited at that prospect of diving even deeper into the type of world it evokes and the questions it asks. I love that the most crucial mystery our character is trying to solve is the one of his own soul.”

Scripted by Kurt Wimmer, centres on a man who has recurring dreams of a visit to Mars.

Producer Neal H. Moritz added: “I have been trying for years to work with Len and fortunately we finally found a great project that he loves as much as we do. Len is terrifically talented and we know he is the right director to re-imagine Total Recall for a new generation of fans.”
